Kids activities in Groningen: the Groninger Forum, the Groninger Museum and the Hortus Botanicus are all within walking distance of Noorderplantsoen park, so you can duck indoors or stay outside depending on the weather. These family activities also work well for an afternoon with no fixed plan. What to do with kids in Groningen? A cycle through Noorderplantsoen, the playground at Stadspark and an ice cream on the Vismarkt add up to a compact day out with kids, easy on foot or by bike. Families after activities for kids near me, whether that's today or this weekend, will usually find Groningen has something close by. Local kids events and other events for kids run throughout the year, from Vismarkt festivals to museum workshops. With its car-free city centre, Groningen works well for a school trip with a group of children. Babies do well with quiet spots and baby concerts, toddlers enjoy sensory activities and petting zoos, preschoolers love storytime and the playgrounds, and school-age children usually pick the Groninger Museum and the Forum.
In the upcoming months, there are plenty of activities for families with children in Groningen. For the youngest ones, the Forum hosts 'Kleintje Koffie' gatherings, where parents can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere while meeting other parents with their babies. For toddlers, there are fun film screenings like 'LàQua', a warm experience filled with sounds and movement, and 'Buurman & Buurman bouwen een feestje', where they can engage in creative activities. Preschoolers can enjoy 'Dag Poes', an entertaining show that captivates them, and 'Stuntelman', a comedic adventure full of excitement. For older children, there are thrilling performances like 'Alice in Wonderland' and 'De Proefkeuken en de WC van tijd', taking them on a magical journey. Additionally, the Cinekid Festival offers a whole day of children's films and creative workshops, perfect for kids aged 2 to 12.
